    I wanted to write something witty in response to the Texas motto -- but I really do (only) speak English!...

    Thanks for the laugh!

    Slightly OT, the official state insect of Connecticut (yes, we have one!) is the praying mantis.

    Now if that doesn't violate the separation of church and state, I don't know what does! ;)
